Weekend giveaway: Plan to Eat

Today’s giveaway comes from loyal monthly sponsor Plan to Eat, a genius little online program that pretty much does everything for you but actually cook your meals.

This is a simple tool that allows you to store your favorite recipes (and import them from around the Internet!), create menu plans using those recipes, and even provide grocery lists based on those same recipes.

My favorite feature? How simple it is. Its clean interface allows for intuitive interaction — it took me mere seconds to get my account up and running, and I had my weekly menu plan created in minutes.

This is a great tool for busy families with hungry kids.

You can share recipes with others on Plan to Eat, you can organize your grocery lists by store, and you can tag your recipes in infinite ways. You can even track nutritional information and cost breakdown of all of your recipes and menus! And for those of you that love going paperless, you can use Plan to Eat’s mobile app to carry all your menu planning with you. No more accidentally leaving the house without your grocery list.

I have been trying to meal plan and use certain recipes people share with me (or I find online) for-e-ver but cannot/have not find the time (or motivation to make time) to go through everything and get new ingredients etc. Would love this to do the work (of making my shopping list) for me. Thanks for sharing.

I’ve always known meal planning was the way to go, but I flounder! I’m currently floundering, as I’m trying to save money for a vacation and this is the best way I know how! anything I could get to help out would be awesome!

This has been something I have been dreaming of since I discovered your website. I have 11 month old twins and two older children that are eating A LOT, so menu planning and simplicity are a way of life. This would be a WONDERFUL treat for me and my family! Thank you

I could so use this program. We recently moved 20 miles one way from the closest grocery store and I am having trouble planning ahead and remembering everything that I need to get. I only want to go to town once a week if even that often. I think this program would help me plan diverse menues and make a detailed shopping list so that I had everthing I need.

This is beyond awesome! I did the free 30 day trial and loved it but it just isn’t in our budget to subscribe. Oh how I would love to have this for a year! Thanks for offering such a wonderful mommy tool!

What a great giveaway! I have so many recipes, but really am disorganized about keeping up with them and usually go with the few solid recipes I know and love. Would love to be more organized and have some variety in what we eat. Thanks for the chance!!

Simple Mom has been my “Go To First” blog for several weeks in my ongoing effort to get organized. “Plan to Eat” would help me gain organization also in my meal planning! I would love to be one of the BIG Winners! Thank you for this opportunity!!

My friend and I were talking just yesterday about planning meals. She uses a subscription program she loves and I was considering it, but just wasn’t sure because it tells you what your meal plan is for the week. I’ve used MasterCook, but it’s not portable! So I’ve been searching for a new program. This imports recipes from the web, I can get the information on my cell while I’m shopping?! Wowza! Put my name in the hat, please!

Simple Mom has been my “Go To First” blog for several weeks in my ongoing effort to get organized! “Plan to Eat” would help greatly in my meal planning organization if I am one of the BIG Winners!! Thank you for this opportunity!!!

I just signed up for a trial a few days ago. I’m already in love and have been importing recipes like crazy, lol! It’s totally brilliant, not to mention the time it will save in meal planning. Would love to win a free year!!!

I would LOVE this! I do my meal planning on paper, but more and more of my recipes are online. I’d love to be able to import them. Also, my sister lives in London (I’m in NC) and she’s just starting to menu plan and this would let me share with her!

I would be overwhelmed with feelings of gratitude if I received an one year subscription to Plan to Eat. I truly need this for both my family and in-home daycare. I love to cook, especially healthy meals, but have very little time and energy available to menu plan efficiently. Thank you for possibly changing my life for the better!

I have menu mailers but they’re not always something my family will eat. I often find myself scouring the internet for recipes that fit our dietary restrictions and preferences then forget where the recipe was when I decide I’d like it again. I’ve also gotten out of the habit of actually planning a menu for the week and really need to start back up so I can prepare something other than hot dogs or smoothies. This sounds like a wonderful solution to my problems

Though I’m not the mommie, just the daughter, I love to do the cooking and always need new ideas! If only it also gave out little pills of taste bud changing concoctions so my little brothers would learn to love their vegetables!

I have looked around on the Plan To Eat site and found the different features exciting! I have been ‘planning’ to menu plan and cook monthly for two years and just can’t seem to break through but I would really like to see if this tool can he’ll me over those organizational hurdles.
Thank you for the chance to enter.

This is such a great giveaway. I’d love to win this, and I’m about to embark on the big step on changing my diet and my goal is to learn how to plan, buy and cook all my food like a big boy. I’m actually using the 30-day trial they offer. =D
